I am currently reading The Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide. It is so singularly absurd and has such a twisted common sense that one cannot help but absolutely love it even if for nothing more than its ridiculous irrationality.

I only wish I had not waited so long before reading it (it has been on my 'to read' list for the past two or three years).

Like: (extracted from the end bit of Chapter 20 of The Restaurant at the End of the Universe)
"I wonder who this ship belongs to anyway," said Arthur.
"Me," said Zaphod.
"No. Who it really belongs to."
"Really me," insisted Zaphod. "Look, property is theft, right? Therefore theft is property. Therefore this ship is mine, okay?"

HA! See... there are people who have a sense of logic more bent than my own. Ok, Zaphod might not be a real person but the author is and if he wrote it than it only stands to reason that he too must have a twisted logic of his own.

Honestly, the movie of the first novel - The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy - does the book no justice whatsoever. But then again, movies rarely do, do they. See, that is one of the great things about books. There is no need to edit out certain things so that it can fit into so-many pages.
